Introduction to Modern Technology in Fund Services
At Linnovate, we are transforming fund services through modern technology and a “do-it-for-you” approach. Our RAISE platform represents a decentralized fund ecosystem that uses blockchain technology to create a digital ledger system that facilitates secure information sharing directly with internal teams, limited partners, and stakeholders. With blockchain, the real-time recording of transactional, contractual, and other information in a shared ledger allows for automatic verification of legal compliance, significantly increasing operational efficiency, while enhancing the investor experience by making data privacy, investor transactions, and engagement more secure.
Streamlined Data Management with Linnovate’s RAISE Platform
Our approach at Linnovate is a “do it for you” model that combines modern technology with the depth, experience, and domain expertise of our fund services team. With our RAISE platform, we are able to handle vast volumes of data more effectively than ever before. Automated data aggregation and integration tools ensure real-time access to critical financial information, reducing manual errors and processing delays. This capability allows our fund managers to deliver transparent reporting, seamless communications, and on-demand resources to help fund GPs and their LPs to make informed decisions quickly and effectively.
Enhanced Reporting and Investor Transparency with RAISE
Meeting the expectations of modern investors has become increasingly complex for fund managers, as LPs demand real-time access to performance data, comprehensive reporting transparency, and on-demand resources to aid in their investment decision-making. We are able to deliver this via customizable portals that serve as information hubs to a funds LPs. At Linnovate, our RAISE platform allows fund managers to meet and exceed these expectations by allowing clients to reap the benefit of sophisticated technology without incurring the costs and time associated with in-house implementation. The RAISE platform delivers comprehensive solutions to fund managers, helping them focus on the business of investment identification and execution.
Advanced Cybersecurity Measures and Systems Accreditation
As technology evolves, so do threats to data and privacy. We employ advanced cybersecurity measures, as well as blockchain technology to safeguard sensitive financial data and protect against potential breaches. Multi-factor authentication, encryption techniques, and AI-driven threat detection systems are industry standards we uphold. This allows us to help clients remain compliant with industry best practices and regulations, providing a secure environment for financial operations.
We holds several significant certifications that demonstrate Linnovate’s commitment to security and compliance. Specifically, our fund services solutions have achieved SOC 2 Type II and ISAE 3000 certifications. These certifications highlight our dedication to maintaining high standards of data protection, operational efficiency, and regulatory compliance.
SOC 2 Type II Certification:
• SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) and focuses on the Trust Service Criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. This certification ensures that Linnovate has the appropriate controls in place to manage data securely and protect it from unauthorized access.
• SOC 2 Type II certification involves a rigorous auditing process that evaluates how well an organization’s controls operate over a period of time. This certification is crucial for service organizations handling sensitive customer data, while demonstrating Linnovate’s commitment to client security and operational excellence.
ISAE 3000 Certification:
• ISAE 3000 (International Standard on Assurance Engagements) is an international standard for reporting on non-financial information. This standard, issued by the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC), ensures that Linnovate adheres to stringent guidelines for managing and reporting information beyond financial data.
• The certification under ISAE 3000 covers various principles, including security, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, and privacy, providing a comprehensive assessment of Linnovate’s control environment.
These certifications are a testament to our continuous investment in security best practices, our commitment to protecting client data, and our dedication to ensuring operational integrity and regulatory compliance with industry standards.
Increased Transparency with Blockchain
Blockchain technology has introduced an unprecedented level of transparency and security in fund administration. Our RAISE platform embraces blockchain to ensure transactions and holdings are documented in a trustworthy and tamper-proof manner. The decentralized nature of blockchain allows our fund manager clients and their LPs to have a legitimate copy of the ledger, making it a more secure mechanism than traditional central ledger approaches.
Mobile Applications for Investor Engagement
Mobile applications have transformed how investors interact with their funds and administrators. With our secure mobile platforms and HTML based communications, investors no longer need to manage and secure documents with PDF technology, as the RAISE platform is able to provide access to real-time portfolio information, receive updates, and initiate transactions safely and conveniently. This approach allows our fund manager clients to enhance their investor experience and foster long-term fund advocacy.
Scalability and Flexibility with Cloud Computing
Our cloud-based solutions in RAISE offer the flexibility to scale operations rapidly and adjust to the growth and changing business demands of growing fund managers. The accessibility of the cloud allows for remote collaboration, reducing the need for physical infrastructure and increasing cost-effectiveness. Our RAISE platform supports the seamless integration of fund administration technology, enhancing operational efficiencies for fund managers and their limited partners.
AI and ML for Enhanced Decision Making
Developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are revolutionizing everything. Fund services are no exception. AI enhances the handling of complex tasks such as risk assessment, fraud detection, and compliance monitoring. These technologies, combined with blockchain data management and cloud based collaboration provide powerful analytics to identify patterns, deliver data-driven insights, and optimize fund management. AI and ML support real-time data access and comprehensive fund analytics, allowing our fund managers to make informed decisions and enhance overall fund performance.
